“Rare Moments … There are times when a musician seems possessed by an extraordinary creative energy. Christophe Bailleau O’Farrell is undeniably going through one of these periods. His albums follow one another at a steady pace, yet this abundance is never accompanied by any loss of momentum: each new release enriches a constantly expanding universe.

With “Romantic, Visceral”, Bailleau O’Farrell continues this inspired dynamic. A composer, programmer, pianist, guitarist, flutist, and soundscape artist, the musician from the Liège province also knows how to surround himself with the most relevant collaborators: Julien Ash, A Limb, Kozik, or Jordane Prestrot.

“My vision of Romantism: a quest of beauty and mystery, truth…” specifies Christophe.

“Romantic, Visceral” approaches its subject with a discreetly brilliant touch. Here, the displayed romanticism has nothing to do with outdated nostalgia. It is a permanent quest for mystery, infatuated with that murky, Baudelairean, exhilarating beauty!

Christophe Bailleau O’Farrell is a musician in a state of absolute grace!”
–Ilian Mirov, June 2026

“My friend, my mentor is dead. The universe has split in two, me in the middle.
How to find your way back to dreams, to yourself?
Romanticism (and the internal transformations it brings about) is a necessity in a world parched with age.
Fall into darkness. Get up. Recover, leave, hope, continue.
Romantism, visceral.
>From the manure comes the rose.”
–Christophe Bailleau O’Farrell, June 2026
